China Biofuels Energy Roadmap Project
• One of the findings of the Renewable Energy Roadmap was that the highest priority area for improving knowledge for policy making and technology direction was bioenergy. The NDRC commissioned a detailed roadmap study for the development of bioenergy in China. This project was also assigned to the 3E Institute.
• The key areas of the study were:– Targets for biofuel development by 2010 and 2020– Technological options and pathways to achieve the targets– Regional distribution of future china’s biofuel industry– Specific and concrete measures to promote biofuel technology
development and deployment.
• This project was also sponsored by BP ($50 K)
China Biofuels Energy Roadmap Objectives1) Biomass Resource AssessmentBiomass resource assessment is to determine a realistic biomass resource potential for biofuel development in China by 2010 and 2020. The availability of four categories of biomass resources will be assessed and mapped by province/region: 1) energy crops & residues 2) food crop residues 3) forestry residues and 4) municipal solid waste. A resource assessment model will developed and applied.
2) Integrated Biofuel Technology AssessmentTechnology assessment is to determine an appropriate portfolio of biofuel technologies and/or routes, and their supply potentials by 2010 and 2020, taking into account resource availability, technology maturity, life-circle energy efficiency, infrastructure requirement, economics, environmental emission, local development, and so on. Technologies will cover both ethanol and bio-diesel making technologies and/or processes. Life circle analysis will be carried out to analyze the energy balance of biofuel technologies.
3) Assessment of Demand for Biofuels Assessment of demands for biofuels is to estimate the realistic potentials of demand for biofuels from transportation and power sector by 2010 and 2020, taking into account such influencing factors as total demand for liquid fuels of the two sectors, petroleum supply, oil price, biofuel price, and so on. A demand assessment model will be developed.
4) Identification of Barriers to Market Entry of BiofuelsIt is to identify the major technology-specific barriers to development and deployment of biofuel technologies and/or routes s in short and long term, covering: 1) technological barriers, 2) economic barriers, 3) market barriers 4) institutional barriers, and 5) social barriers.
5) Policies for Matching Biofuel Demand and SupplyIt is to identify cost-effective policies and institutional changes that stimulate the development and deployment of biofuel technologies, and translate them into near and long term action plans. Policy mechanisms would include both supply-push and demand-pull measures, as well as economic policies. Substantial efforts will be taken to investigate the role of policy instruments in matching biofuel demand and supply. A biofuel system model will be developed to evaluate policies, and examine environmental and social impacts of biofuel technology development
From 4/20/06 Proposal to BP to support the project

Automotive/TransportSUMO and China Automotive Energy Research Center
Sustainable Urban Mobility Project2005-2009
• BP initiated a project with Tsinghua CEC in 2005 to study the problem of sustainable development of cities during rapid urbanization in China. It is called the Sustainable Urban Mobility Project (SUMO).
• The BP SUMO project incorporated the input of six different departments of Tsinghua (including energy, electrical engineering, business school, public policy and environment into a multiyear systems study of the approaches for more efficient Chinese cities.
• The BP SUMO project is recognized as establishing a new level of cross disciplinary analysis of the social, technical and policy aspects of the energy/environment issues facing China.
• The learning and capabilities demonstrated in the SUMO project were important precursors for the formation of the China Automotive Energy Research Center and the Ditan Lab.
Origin and initiation of SUMO Summary• In broad terms, BP will explore the possibility of collaborating with Tsinghua University to
explore the issues, goals, and challenges associated with the massive urbanisation of the population over the next 25 years. Then, using the findings of the initial work, BP will consider forming a partnership with one or more key Chinese governmental entities, one or more metropolitan areas, and local experts to study in depth potential solutions to the urbanisation challenge.
SuMo Context• In 1Q 2004 a team was created to look at strategic options for R&M in the sustainable
mobility arena. The rationale was that innovation and leadership on certain opportunities this area could provide future earnings, competitive differentiation, and reputational advantages. In 3Q, the team presented a catalogue of activities within the Segment that support the general concept.
• One of the opportunities that showed particular promise for BP was the pace of urbanisation in China, one of BP’s downstream elephant markets, and the issue of transportation planning. In 4Q Starry Dong, a SuMo team member, visited China to test hypotheses that had been developed through preliminary research internally and externally. Her findings were used to develop a proposed plan of action for 2005. The idea was tested by John Manzoni during his December 2004 visit, and the decision has been made to move forward.
From SUMO proposal to John Manzoni, Head of R&M SegmentJanuary, 2005

Proposal for Tsinghua Cambridge MIT Low Carbon University Alliance (TCMA)
• In conjunction with the formation of the Ditan Lab, Tsinghua has made a proposal to MIT and Cambridge University to form a joint program for global collaboration on policy and technology options for a low carbon economy.
• The fundamental basis will be to form a strong base for joint modeling of economy, environment and economics between China, US and Europe. And to support joint technology development for leading low carbon technologies such as clean coal, efficiency, nuclear and biofuels.
• The TCMA has been endorsed by the leadership of the three universities and is in the stage of negotiation and fundraising.
• BP has played a very strong supporting role in the development of this concept due to our close working relationships and long term support of each of the universities.

CEC/Ditan in the landscape of Chinese energy technology and policy research
Unique Strengths of CEC and Ditan Lab• Tsinghua University is the leading university in China providing policy advice
based on technology and economics in the area of energy and environment.• The Ditan Lab will strengthen those capabilities and Tsinghua’s role in
providing systematic and fact based advice on China’s move to a low carbon economy.
• Tsinghua has always been very strong in collaboration with international universities and institutions. This is true in the area of energy and environment. BP CEC has strong programs in this area with MIT, Cambridge, Princeton and Imperial College built up through the BP network. Collaboration in detail on economics and technology between international universities is particularly important in complex policy areas such as low carbon economy.
• The Tsinghua network to leaders in the China energy industry is very important to work with industry on the policy options and implications for a low carbon economy.
